Can't fill out some parts of I-129F - whited (i.e. greyed) out

[Daithifd 1]

For some of the options on the I-129F, I can't type in the boxes. This only occurs for sections following a tick a yes or no box question. For example, after section 8, it asks if the applicants current physical address is the same as their mailing address, and you tick yes or no. Then section 9 (physical address 1) is based on your answer from that. You fill out section 9 if you answered no. However, the form doesn't allow me to type in any of the section 9 boxes for some reason. The boxes are white as opposed to the rest of the boxes on the form which are blue. This happens in a few other sections also. I've tried opening the form in both Chrome and Edge and neither allow me to fill out that section. I can fill out physical address 2 (section 11) no problem. Any advice? Thanks.

 

ETA: Should I be handwriting the entire form?

Weird. Usually it only blocks the lines if you don't need to fill something. Like if you would have answered yes on that question. You can fill out everything you can on the computer, print and fill the rest out by hand. It's totally fine to mix.

Try opening it in Adobe Reader, which should let you edit it wherever. If not, you can write in anything you need to after printing the rest out.

Great, thank you. If I can't figure it out I'll just mix.

I'll give this a try, thanks!
